LOVE….MODA Blog Party

Welcome to the Moda Blog tour!!!…I am Lisa Bongean of Primitive Gatherings…I’m glad you stopped by…I have been a moda designer for a couple of years now and I truly LOVE it!! I design under Primitive Gatherings which happens to be the name of our quilt shop in Menasha, WI…that is by Appleton. We have a beautiful shop, my studio is in our warehouse and we also have a retreat house right down the road, so come visit if you are ever in the area! Look for workshops and retreats coming in 2015! I LOVE being home…you should come see me!

For this blog tour the crew at Moda has prepared some questions for us…so you get to know us a little better…

When did you start quilting? I starting quilting in 1996…while I was at swimming lessons with the boys on a Saturday morning…a lady was hand quilting a baby quilt…I had never seen a patchwork quilt before…I asked her how she cut them all up and sewed them back together…she then proceeded to tell me about the “quilt shop” in town…

Tell us about your first quilt. My first real quilt is a blue and cream star quilt…It was from an American Patchwork & Quilting magazine… It is hand quilted…I really didn’t know what I was doing but It turned out and I didn’t give up on it…I have a 1/2″ binding…the quilting is a little quirky…but for my first completed real quilt…I LOVE it!

When did you fall in LOVE with quilting/ textiles? and Why? After I took my first quilting class…which felt like an eternity waiting to attend it…I was sooooo In LOVE…I could do it!…it was actually easy for me…my head was spinning…they were all talking about other shops….guilds and sewing groups…I was in heaven… What fuels you to create? I just love to see what I can make with my hands..I can see it in my head and it is amazing that I actually can make it happen! I love math…but being creative, organized and keeping all those numbers straight sometimes can be very overwhelming! I LOVE what I do…and have a hard time know when to hang it up for the day…so I guess that means I am doing what I am supposed to! What is the best part of your design process? The best part for me…is making all the choices…what fabrics to use….should I set them “on point” or straight…should I make big blocks or make them as tiny as I can…I LOVE being in control of any and all of those decisions! I love the color……Right now my favorite color to work with is Moda…anything Moda…but seriously…I used to not care too much for the color white…you never saw me create with white…but somehow, maybe because I am older or should I should say mature, it has grown on me…I like being able to create homey warm projects with my normal “white” which is tan. But as of late…I am using some white… it is nice to be more versatile…more current or if I wish to or go back to a more vintage style I can…so I guess what I am trying to say is…it good to have more choices. When I teach classes or workshops, I love…..Teaching my students all the tricks…I remember what it is like to be in quilt class and how exciting it was…My intent is to inject them with excitement and be confident with the skills I have taught when the class is over. I want them to LOVE this as much as I do! This project features a layer cake, charm pack or mini charm, but what is your all time favorite moda precut? I would prefer the FQ tower! That is the best precut!!! This question is like saying do you want one scoop of ice cream or two? The more fabric the better…

Who would you like to spend a day with… I would love to spend the day with a bunch of Moda designers…just to see what we could come up with? Maybe a fabric line…we all could contribute one sku? Kind of a collaboration line…give the $$$ to a charity…

The Project…

For my quilt project I chose the mini charms…partly because I did not have my fabric line to work with yet…so we had to use Homestead Gatherings…which is good…cause you can make this right now!!! It takes 2 mini charms and probably a yard of primitive muslin. We only used the reds, greens, blacks and browns…we saved the lights for the back…So if you are following the pattern use the Primitive Muslin as your light. We then bordered the 12″ block with a 4″ wide border. Piece the remaining light mini charms…add some primitive muslin squares also to make 64- 2 1/2″ squares needed for the back. You will also have to border this too. I would put a 6″ border on the back. If you need to order Homestead Gathering precuts you can do so here: PRECUTS If you need to order Primitive muslin…you can do that here: PRIMITIVE MUSLINWe used Paper Bag 1040-24. Our little quilt finished 19″x 19″ after quilting.

I wish I had the Lakeside Gatherings for this big star pattern to make a couch snuggling quilt with it for our Lakehouse. When we are done making all the samples for actual quilts in the line I will be making the charm version. Here are a few pictures of the quilts from Lakeside Gatherings being made in progress…The Lakeside Gatherings line is coming in December 2014…

I feel like such a “groupy”. Loved seeing you in New Ulm, and do appreciate your ability to teach and get your students excited. Lakehouse is beautiful – of course. Be sure to thank the employees for their wonderful customer service – can’t say enough about that

I’m impressed with how good your first quilt looks – especially that hand quilting! Obviously you are doing what you were meant to do! Love all of your fabric lines and can’t wait to play with this one!

Hi Lisa,
When l read about your excitement teaching and inspiring others, l could relate. l teach workshops and do demos for the 2 guilds l belong to. l LOVE, LOVE, LOVE being able to show a new pattern, technique , or trick to my cronies and have them get the “fire in the belly” as was once described to me by a wonderful teacher l had many years ago. lt is a blessing for all of us to have one another and a love of quilting to share forever.

I tried hand quilting years ago on a quilt for my daughter. However I never got a chance to finish it and it still sits on the top shelf of my closet. 25 years later she still rminds me I need to finish it!!

I loved reading your answers to the questions and think a brainstorming session with all the designers is a great idea! Would love to come to a retreat some day. Thank you for the opportunity to win some of the yummy grey and yellow in your new line.

Your first quilt was inspiring-I am impressed!!! It sure doesn’t look like MY first quilt! 😦 I also LOVE your little mini quilt. It would be so cute to make for X-mas. Thank you for the beautiful pattern and for sharing your quilting story.

WOW! I can’t believe that blue and cream star quilt was your first quilt. It’s beautiful, perfect points and what fantastic hand quilting. I’d be thrilled to have made that now after 24 yrs of quilting, I still can’t hand quilt. You have my admiration, you are the “Queen of Quilting”! ;-> Toni Anne

Morning Lisa! The mini quilt is sooooo cute…a great table topper. Your designs are amazing, I have unopened kits in my stash just waiting patiently! Your blogs always seem like they come from a friend…thanks for sharing with all of us. Anxious to visit your place one day!

I LOVE your mini quilt with the beige background fabric. Thank you for a giveaway chance with your new fabric line. I love the soft yellow in with the blues/greys and other colors. What beautiful fabric.

I love reading your answers to all the questions! And I can’t wait for your new line to come out. I want to do my bedroom in gray and yellow so I am looking forward to making the quilts you are working on for your new line. It is perfect!

Wowsy! I was talking to your son at a quilt show earlier this year and he told me you were working on a nautical line. I have been waiting and waiting to see what you designed and I absolutely love it! Although, I love everything you do.

Really love what you did with the pattern using the mini charm packs, even if it was not your newest fabric collection. It really is very nice to see projects made using that size as they are such an affordable way to get the fabrics we love, and more of them. I see so many of the fabric collections that I really would love to buy, but gosh, I certainly can’t afford to buy fat quarter bundles of them all, and even the regular sized charm packs can add up quickly if buying a lot of the different collections.

OOOH, I would love to take a quilting class with you! I’ve never been able to take a class or go to a retreat and the closest quilt shop is 1 1/2 hrs from me. I just plug along here at home, learning from blogs like yours! It was fun to hear how you got started quilting! I love the mini quilt!

Your first quilt reminds me of my first quilt, all hand done. Love the new fabrics can’t wait to use them. You are amazing, you give classes, make and design quilts, do quilt shows, run a store and have a family and love doing them all.

Oh, how I would love that bundle of fat eighths !! Am planning a quilt for my grandson and some of these would work so well in there. BUt…..with the white, blues, and yellows; I just might decide to make a quilt for myself out of them. Decisions, decisions. Your small quilt is lovely and I enjoyed reading your responses to Moda’s questions.

Love your Lakeside Gathering fabric line. Would feel so blessed to win it! I particularly love the nine patch quilt in the plaids. Would love to make this quilt. I’ve pinned it for a future project. Thanks for the post and giveaway!

Went to my first and so far only quilt show in Long Beach and you and your husband were there, I was too new to quilting but I know what I like….LOVE your fabrics and wools! As I’ve said in on this tour I started out sewing clothes so I’m new to pre-cuts, but I have bought a couple of your fat quarters! I love your style and find myself drawn to your colors….I hope to visit your shop someday!

Lisa, you are amazing. You keep coming up with wonderful fabric lines and projects. I would love to win the fabric prize. I have used many of your fabrics and have a great collection of them. Thank you so much for the chance to win some of your great fabrics.

I would love to do a workshop with you! I think lakeside is my new favorite line, but I sa y that with every release. Thanks for sharing all the new patterns, triangles!!! Hurrah!! And thanks for such a lovely giveaway too!

I love everything you do – both cotton and wool, and have a stash to prove it. I have fat quarter bundles of all of your lines and love them all. They not only go well together but also with other patterns from other designers. Looking forward to visiting your booth tomorrow in Chattanooga.

I love your new line. Moda is my favorite fabric to work with too! I can always tell which fabric is moda because I am drawn to it. I am just now beginning to tell the fabric from different designers too without even looking at the designer name:)

Ever since I was at your booth in Chicago several years ago, I have been in love with all your designs. I have loved wool forever, so was tickled when you started using them in projects. I buy all your towers of fabric, even if I haven’t used some of them yet, guess I need to get going on that!! Thank you for you sharing your talents with all of us.

Looking forward to seeing Lakeside Gatherings in my hands! Your fabric lines and colors are beautiful. Love seeing you at Paducah!!! Your booth is always one of my favorites! Thank you for all your hard work!

One day I would love to visit your shop and retreat center…looking forward to hearing you speak at the Gwinnett Guild this month! Love your patterns and fabric lines, seeing your samples in person is always a treat at shows.

I love all your fabrics but Lakeside looks to be a sure favorite. I have Homestead Gatherings and am planning on a quilt now with a layer cake I purchased -also a charm pack-thinking of doing the five and dime quilt.

Your post was so much fun! I truly feel giddy when your emails arrive. The table topper is just divine! I received my week 14 SBOW and I am so excited about the borders and setting the blocks. What an amazing project! Thanks for all you and your wonderful staff do!!!

Amazing what each quilter is doing with this pattern. Fabric line, colors, quilting. I just printed the pattern from another person yesterday. Character, personality, skill sure makes a “new look” and all are beautiful.

I love the pattern in the mini , so beautiful. And the feather quilting is awesome ! Thank you for the chance to win your new line. I live by the water on Long Island , NY and the nautical theme is super popular here !

Just love everything Primative, including everything Gatherings. Your talent is above and beyond, fabric design and colors are just my style, and patterns are wonderful. The employees and your family of workers are the most helpful I have found on the phone and in person. Keep up the wonderful Gatherings

I’m looking forward to Lakeside Gatherings. Blue is my favorite color and I love plaids and stripes!! Your mini charm quilt has inspired me to try making a similar table topper. I’ll look through my stash of Primitive Gatherings fabrics. Thank you for the opportunity to win some fabric. Thank you for participating in the Moda Blog Hop.

I cannot wait for Lake side gatherings collection to be out. It is just so beautiful and so unlike anything else. Just discovered your shop when you were in Grand Rapids this year, it like opened up a whole new world to me. Thank you.

Huh! Sometimes I can’t think past the nose on my face! Everyone is making the Moda Love quilt using layer cakes; it never occurred to me to use other precuts as well! I have a couple of minis here, waiting for the right project, and here you have demonstrated what I can do!!! I really like the back of your mini quilt, using the lights.

I am looking forward to Lakeside Gatherings becoming available, it is beautiful. Enjoy reading your blog ~ and seeing the pics of the quilts you post. Love your first quilt, along with the hand quilting.

I adore all of your fabric and wools. I would love to win the bundle of fat eights. I enjoyed reading your answers to the questions from Moda. I have always used my “tan” as my white fabric!!!! I just love the warm look you get with all of your designs.

Lakeside Gatherings looks really goooooooooooood. I wished I had the first quilt I made but sadly I don’t. I am a fan and have been for many years. The blessings in your life that you get to do what you love and spread it all around.

Lisa I am just crushing on the new fabric line! I’m a New England girl who has spent the last 24 years in Atlanta, so nautical and navy is just like home for me! I am currently fondling my Snowman Gathering fabrics to decide on quilt pattern for them! My Seasonal Gatherings jelly rolls are waiting for me too! I love your fabric lines and want to say thank you for sharing your talents with us!

I have only been quilting for a few years so I do know where my first quilt is. It resides at my daughter’s house and looks great there. Your fabric line is really great. All of the hand quilting on your first quilt is amazing.

I love your Block and the fabric, Lakeside Gathering. Very striking block, indeed. Thank you for being a part of the Moda Love Blog Tour and the chance to become a Moda Winner of such an elegant fabric line.

Awesome stuff Lisa!! Love me some “Gatherings” fabric. Wish that I am the lucky person that wins. Love your response to “When I teach…” You are an great sharer of information and how to. Have attended a lecture with you and hope to get to a workshop in the near future.

Your first quilt is wonderful……….you are obviously in the right place. Love the Lakeside Gatherings and the quilts being made from the fabrics. I will be looking for this in the stores when it comes out.

Your little quilt is stunning, so beautiful! ! ! I love the anchor on the star quilt, too. My DH is retired from the Navy, your quilt gives me ideas! Thank you for a chance to win some wonderful fabric, too.

I was immediately drawn to your Lakeside Gatherings collection – the prints and shades evoke fond memories. I grew up in Duluth, MN and maritime themed fabrics are on my “Most Wanted” list as I create from what I know. You do beautiful work and I was inspired with your Moda Love project to use some muslin with one of the items I plan to make.

Lisa, I love the new fabric line! The last quilt would be great for my sons. Can’t wait til the fabric line is here. It’s hard to believe you only started quilting in 1996. The passion and love for designing is certainly in your blood. The blog tour has been fun.
Jo King

Your first quilt is rather beautiful! You did an amazing job just starting out.
The star quilt is charming 🙂 and the Lakeside Gathering collection is full of gorgeous design. Thank you for the sweet offering!

Your first quilt is beautiful. You certainly chose a complicated pattern as your first one. My first few quilts all involved squares. It wasn’t until I joined a couple of quilt clubs that I even tried triangles. And that was because they were the homework projects. I am so glad I joined those clubs. I may never have had the courage to try half square triangles and all the other techniques. I have been quilting almost 2 years now and love it. I love your new line of fabric. Can’t wait….

Love what you did with the Moda Love Shop Hop free pattern! I hadn’t started mine yet, so now I can go with your modifications! I love your very first quilt — can’t believe you weren’t daunted by the decision to hand-quilt your first project!!

Your booth is the first one I visit any time that you are vending at a quilt show. It is always inspiring and I always leave with supplies for a new project. I love your style and am looking forward to your new line.

I started quilting in 2005 but haven’t sewn is quite some time (due to lifes ups and downs) but you’ve inspired me to go out and purchase the material and start sewing again – starting with something small. I think I will make this for a holiday gift!

Really enjoyed reading about your love of the process of quilting and teaching others. I have yet to make something using black and white prints. Your line looks so fun. I would like to play with it. Thank you for sharing your passion.

I would love to include some of those prints from Lakeside into a quilt I’m working on for my front porch. I’m totally in love with the anchor on the star quilt– AMAZING. I might have been tempted to make that for my porch if I wasn’t already partway into the one I planned. Perhaps I’ll have 2 quilts for the porch… hmmm… Thanks for the chance to win!

I loved reading your answers to all the questions asked. Lisa, you never cease to amaze! From your
humble quilting beginning to the amazingly talented person you’ve grown to be! It seems I love anything
“Primitive Gatherings”. I hope you never lose that enthusiasm & love you have.

Your quilting is lovely! I would love to win a stack of your Lakeside and make a pretty ninepatch quilt. You say that you are beginning to use white and I am just now starting to like the color gray. I especially like it with yellow. Thanks for the chance to win!

This Lakeside Gatherings is a Must for me! I really like that quilt you have on the quilting frame, the squares. It is beautiful!! I haven’t been into whites either but this line has me drooling! Thank you for the chance to win. So far you are my favorite Love Blog Hop!

Love, love, love this fabric!!!! Blue is my favorite color! I spent many years of my childhood at my grandparents home on a lake fishing, swimming, boating and just the love of water!!!! Great memories!

I really just love your hand quilting on your “first” quilt… I have made about 4-6 quilts in the last four yrs.,(I am a some what informed beginner) I love the colors of Lakeside Gatherings. Thank you for sharing your blog and quilt.
Gwen

I think your first quilt is beautiful , my first was a red white and blue trip around the world from a good housekeeping magazine made in 1977?? I was still in high school..Love the new fabrics, can’t wait to add some to my stash!

I, too have been trying to use some colors outside of my comfort zone & it is harder to use the light, bright colors, but I am finding myself liking them. I would be thrilled to win your fabrics, as everything you do is a design that I really like.

I discovered your patterns recently through our local quilt shop. I’m so delighted you have felted wool charm packs! It can be so hard to find felted wool in patterns rather than solids. I’m making six of your snowball runners for Christmas gifts this year, and I’m very excited about it! Being a hand quilter, it was fun seeing your first quilt. It’s lovely!

OH my goodness, I am in love with LAKESIDE GATHERINGS………I am a huge blue fan….and usually not a yellow fan……..but that buttery soft yellow is perfect, and I have been converted!!! Since you have shared photos of your lakeside house, I can envision you enjoying your quilts up there. My grandma used to go every summer to a church event in Lakeside…..so just the name sends me down memory lane filled with sweet thoughts of my grandma…….and yes she was a big quilter. In fact the quilt I inherited from her is a blue and white treasure. I would be overjoyed to win that lovely bundle of beauty, and I will be hoping for that, but right now I need to go make that little quilt you showed with the mini charms from HOMESTEAD GATHERINGS. I just happen to have 2 mini charm packs tucked away….but not for long! Only wish I had Linda Hrcka to quilt mine too. You two are simply a dream team! Thanks for the chance Lisa!

What a really cute mini quilt!!! Lakeside Gatherings will be a huge hit, I’m sure – would love to have it right now along with that pattern. I’d make it for my niece. Thank you for the opportunity to win some ahead of time.

I’m having so much fun “meeting” all of you fabulous designers on this Blog hop. so much beautiful fabric, and years of knowledge. Thank you so much for your generosity in giving this fabric away. It’s so bold and beautiful, and your quilt is also beautiful!

Oh, yellow and grey is my favorite color combination right now…and the blue with it is wonderful.
Nice to meet you, Lisa. I’ve seen Peimitive Gatherings and fabric but never had the chance to get to know you before.
reillyr2(at)hotmail(dot)com

I can’t imagine hand quilting a first quilt let alone one now, I admire that you jumped in like that to start. Your new fabric line is wonderful, would make a beautiful “guy” quilt, it can be hard to find good looking fabrics for those quilts for the men in my life, I will be looking for this.

This is beautiful! Thanks for the chance! And enjoy your trip to Chattanooga! I love Chattanooga!!! We were there for a day visit just last week……I think I could easily call it home if ever the chance! 🙂

I absolutely love all your fabrics. The new line is beautiful. I’m hoping next year I’ll be in a position to do your quilt along. I love the one y’all are doing this year. I’m getting ready to try some wool applique. So next year, count me in. Thanks for taking the time from your busy schedule to do this. And a preview of your new designs

Love your mini version of the Moda quilt. Your quilting is outstanding and makes the quilt really stand out. Love your new fabric line, Lakeside Gatherings but then again I have yet to find anything that I don’t Love at Primitive Gatherings.

You are such an inspiration. Everything Primitive Gatherings is my style. Would love to be a winner. Thanks Lisa for all the eye candy. Just not enough time to make all the things swimming in my head. Looking forward to seeing you in Des Moines in October at the. AQS show so I can take a some Primitive Gatherings home with me.

Would I “like” to win the bundle… Nope!!! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to win it…. great giveaway as always Lisa!!! And of course I’m going to try my hand at the mini quilt from charms. Lots of hugs from CA…

Absolutely love your shop! I was fortunate to meet you this past June when my husband I and were traveling from a family reunion in Minnesota, across northern Wisconsin and the UP of Michigan, back down to Door County and across to Menasha.

I enjoyed reading your blog- just like visitng with you in person. Your passion shows in all you do, express and create. I love coming to Menasha (as you know) and anyone who hasn’t you’re totally missing out. If you think the website or shows are amazing -the shop will blow you away. Thanks Lisa for all you do and who you and your team are.

Absolutely ❤ anything PG! have two charm packs of every line you've done so far, and those are in my just to have stack. That doesn't include the yardage I have bought that I use. I know I've asked before, but PLEASE, convince Moda to carry the Primitive Muslin in Tallow as a constant in their offerings. I love that and use it all the time. I'm getting low and starting to panic!

Can’t wait for your Lakeside Gatherings. Our family is fanatical about the water. And my husband’s passion is waterskiing, so that obsession gets me the freedom to do alot of shopping for quilt accessories. And, Lisa, I think you should do your Star first quilt using your Lakeside Gatherings fabrics. It would be phenomenal !

Thank you for a peek behind the curtain. It is always fun to hear from the designers behind the beautiful fabric lines. Yours would make great Christmas presents for my parents – your color palette would fit their decor to a T. Thanks for sharing! Notwendy gmail

Lisa, I am such a huge fan I feel like I know you anyway but reading your answers to the Moda questions was a lot of fun. I love your new Lakeside Gatherings and can’t wait for it to come out in December.

Yes you right, 6 needles in a pack certainly aren’t enough! The new packing looks great for what I call “butter needles”. They slide right thru wool layer after layer. To be 100% honest I dream of you making them a touch longer for your long fingered fans. Please oh please. Your hand quilted scrap quilt is beautiful and I have a pile of strips just right for the task. Love your enthusiasm!

1) Lisa, your first quilt is amazing! 2) I like prim as well but I’m attracted to some of the modern quilts (in a prim sort of way) 3) will you be teaching any wool online classes? Too far for me to get to WI.

Lisa, My husband and I stopped in your shop this summer. We are from California. I love your shop and wish we had a shop like yours nearby. Thanks for continuing to create new fabric lines. I love each and everyone of them!

You are right, 6 needles in a pack is not enough! The new packaging looks great and can’t wait to see in person. I call your needles, “butter” needles since they go thru layer after layer of fabric. To be honest, ever consider making some a touch longer for your long fingered fans?

I love your fabrics! I can’t wait for the new line to come out. It is so pretty. I am usually drawn to bright colors like Pat Sloan and Bonnie and Camille…but, I’m going to order some of yours right now!!! 🙂

Enjoy your blog , your fabric [just used some on a With Thy Needle and Thread cross stitch pattern], your patterns, and postings in PQ&P magazine. It is difficult trying to find a fabric to finish little projects, so I now just use PG fabric which is the perfect scale[design].

I, too, love the fq tower best……..but, sometimes it is too much for a small project and that’s where the other precuts are lovely!. Your colors are wonderful!! My daughter needs a new quilt for her bed headboard and the new line would fit nicely since she LOVES blacks and whites.

Fun getting to know a little about you through the Love Blog Hop! I’m looking forward to December for your Lakeside Gathering line, I love it and your quilts that you’ve shared ! I have been trying to decide which version to choose for the Modern Building Blocks quilt! I’ll bet it is beautiful in civil war prints chosen by you! cheers, colette

Would it be wrong to just love your bundle of fabric for a long time all tied together without using it, probably but somethings need to be appreciated just for it’s beauty for awhile before one makes that first initial cut!

Ok…if I win I plan to gift to a friend who has gone out of her way to do so much for me, even though I want to use it myself! They say you can’t win the lottery unless you buy a ticket….here goes my entry!

For your first quilt I think you did an amazing job. I tied thousands of whole cloth quilts but wouldn’t piece for anything. It was only 3 years ago that I finally tried stars! The minis are darling. Thanks.

Hi Lisa! I love your new fabric line! I love the pre-cut fat-quarter towers too! Gives me more options when picking out fabric first, than looking for a great pattern. I really loved your first quilt . . . mine was a Quilt In A Day pattern, more that 30 years ago. Wow, time does fly when you’re having fun. Appreciate all your hard work & devotion to bring us great fabric, patterns, threads & needles.

Lisa, I’ve been drooling over your quilts (have been looking through your other posts too)! And I am amazed by your quilting story and how you got started. It was totally meant to be for your to become a quilter! 🙂

I love your new line of lakehouse. My favorite place on earth is visiting the beach. I don’t live near a beach but I would love to make a quilt to snuggle under and breathe in the sounds of water and the smell of the clean beach air. Your collection is just what I need. Thanks

I’ve been a more modern quilter, but lately I’ve been loving more primitive fabrics. I have enjoyed getting to know a little bit about you and your fabrics. Funny that you have been trying to use more white, as I’ve been trying to use less! My quilts are generally 50% to 80% white. I love white! It is my favorite color, but I am trying to challenge myself. Thanks for the fun.

Love your fabrics and patterns! I am fairly new to quilting but I have already established a tradition of buying one of your wool kits as a keepsake from the quilting shows I attend. Just bought my last in Chattanooga and can’t wait to make it 🙂

I love your two color quilt. For a first quilt, it is beautiful. My first quilt isn’t even close to that good. I love the new fabric line and can’t wait to see it in the shops. Keep your fabulous designs and fabrics coming. I love them all.

Oh I just really love the size of the wall hanging and I have the perfect spot…Thanks so much for sharing with all of us. The prize is yummy. And your first quilt looks really very pretty ..I can assure you mine was not even close…lol
